Q&A About Satan

1. Where is the Devil today?

The Devil is all around us. Whether he's behind you, underneath you, or surrounding you, the Devil is present at all times just like God is. He is present because he is waiting for sin or a horrifying event to happen. The Devil does not usually lead or demand a person into sinning and wrong doing, but he tempts the situation and it is up to the person whether or not they are going to follow. His presence is always there, waiting.

2. What purpose does Satan serve?

Satan's purpose is to create bad things. Satan's ultimate goal is to turn everyone completely away from God and follow him and his vicious ways. The starting point to getting everyone on his side is to create temptation. Whether it is a weak or strong soul, anyone can be a victim. Satan does not have any ruling power, but temptation can count as one because it makes the person think whether or not if the situation is good or bad and if they should 'take the chance'. His job is to make the person end up in Hell and suffer.

3. Do you believe in Satan? If yes, how would you describe Satan? If no, why do you think people do believe in Satan?

Yes, I do believe in Satan. I would describe Satan as being a sneaky, filthy liar who, obviously, does the opposite of good. He is mysterious, but clever at the same time because he knows what he is doing in order to lure people into becoming a prisoner in Hell. Satan goes after the weak souls because they have no faith to rely on; making it easy.

4. Do we need a Satan in order to believe in God?

Definitely. I believe in God, so if there is a good in the world, there is a bad as well. The bad would have to be Satan because that is the only polar opposite of God. You cannot have one without the other. It just depends on the person if they want to believe in either God alone, or Satan alone, but I believe that both do indeed exist in this world.

  1. It's interesting to me how you said that Satan creates bad things. I don't necessarily think Satan creates bad things. Like you said, he creates temptation, so the bad that comes from the temptations is a creation of bad by our own selves.
